At first we weren't being told too much and then we were asking whether we'd be landing on water or make it to the runway, the runway at that point was about 20 minutes away."The staff came down and said to everybody, explained how to do the brace position, to take our shoes off, and they explained to the people at the emergency doors what they had to do, so it was all quite real."People started to cry, including myself. There [were] lots of children on the plane as well who were getting a bit upset."She added that the crew had been "great" throughout the incident.
